EVENT TEAM UPDATE

IN-GAME ETREQS & EVENT REQUEST FORUM

An ET Actor at work.

 

Hello everyone, this is just a quick update pertaining to the in-game ETreqs and the revamped Event Request Forum. While ETreqs were a pretty good introduction, it's about time I defined their role a little more while shifting some much-needed development to the Event Request Forum. So I'll break each of them for you below.

IN-GAME ETREQS

 

When I say ETreqs, I'm referring to the ET-equivalent of modreqs, which you can do via /etreq [query]. Here is the purpose of an ETreq and how they should be used:

 

• Event-site Interaction: ETreqs should be ideally used for scheduling interactions with eventsites. For example, if you're wandering and come across a funky looking eventsite with a sign saying 'Contact X for event'. If they're offline and didn't put their Discord tag on the sign, you should do /etreq Hi I found Y's X eventsite and would like to interact with it. That ticket will stay open 'till the relevant ET gets on and talks to you about it.
• Asking Questions: You can also bust out an ETreq for asking event-related questions, such as 'Is this an eventsite?' 'How do I interact with X?' and so on and so forth.
• Quick-time Events: You CAN use ETreqs to try get a small event in-game, but this is not the recommended way of scheduling an event - see the section below on the Event Request Forum. But you can give it a try and see if there's any ET available to do it, but please don't expect fast responses here, and if you really do want an event, you should use the Event Request Forum (see below).

EVENT REQUEST FORUM

 

So my next project for the Team is getting the Event Request (previously Event Proposal) Forum up and running again. If you're looking to schedule an event for your group or some friends, this is the absolute best place to do it rather than ETreqs. Here is the forum:

And this post will tell you everything you need to know about submitting these requests:

And that about wraps up this little update. If you've got any questions about ETreqs, the Request Forum or any event questions in general, you can post below or message me on Discord - my tag is Conor#8203. Have a good day and imagine some witty sign-off here but I'm too tired to think of one so if you just +1 this post you can go now.
